Commissioned by Tavernier Openbare Werken nv, BestBridges built a wooden bridge in Merelbeke. With a span of 4 meters and a clear width of 2 meters, this project exemplifies a high level of craftsmanship and precise engineering.

The structure was built entirely from 100%^{FSC®-certified} Robinia hardwood, a wood species known for its exceptional durability, natural resistance, and warm appearance. The structure was fully prefabricated and pre-assembled, after which BestBridges transported and installed it with minimal disruption to the surrounding area and without any additional on-site assembly work.
